Libby Hill Park

Libby Hill Park is a small park at the heart of the Libby Hill neighborhood of Richmond, Virginia. It was created in 1851, and a plaque was dedicated to the park's view of Richmond, which led to the city's naming; its founders believed that the view of the James River reminded them of the view of the River Thames that Richmond-upon-Thames, England offered them. It also features the Confederate Soldiers and Sailors Monument.
